Consider the reaction below to answer the following questions (4) a. The nucleophile in the reaction is b. The Lewis acid catalyst in the reaction is c. This reaction proceeds(faster or slower)

The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached to this answer.

a) Br^-

b) FeCl3

c) slower

d) see the first attached image

Explanation:

Aromatic compounds undergo electrophilic substitution sections in the presence of the appropriate electrophile.

In the reaction above, the Br^- nucleophile attacks the Lewis acid FeCl3. Recall that the nitro group is meta directing hence the incoming Br^+ electrophile is directed towards the meta position as shown in the image attached.

Note that the nitro group deactivates the ring towards electrophilic substitution hence the reaction is slower with nitrobenzene than with unsubstituted benzene.

answer is: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

this is chemical change (chemical reaction), because two new substances are formed (metalig liquid and gas), the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

this is example of chemical decomposition.

chemical decomposition (analysis) is the separation of a single chemical compound into its two or more elemental parts or to simpler compounds.  

chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.
